I'm from Ont every company I've worked for has a slip that relieves me from duty after 1/2 hour at customer. Not saying it's right or that it will stand up in court but it's standard operating procedure. Myself if I'm working 20 hours a day I have NO problem falling asleep any time I have a chance. One thing you could do is if you are in a dock for say 6 hours just don't leave the premises until your full ten hours are up. Then your legal to go and that will be a hint to them.

If you want to put them to the test, call a cab and leave the property after 1/2 hour. Go to a restaurant, shopping mall, etc. Let the customer call your company because they're done unloading and you're nowhere to be found. "Oh, I went off duty 1/2 hour after I arrived, just like you said."
See how long that policy stays in effect after that
ex-uktrucker Thanks this.
